Neighborhood Guide: Where to Eat, Shop, and Play in Alexandria

Alexandria and DC have a complicated history. When the District of Columbia Organic Act of 1801 established the 100 square miles that would become the nation’s capital, Alexandria—founded in 1749 and one of the oldest cities in the country—sat within its boundaries. But representatives of Alexandria immediately wanted out: As part of DC, they’d lost their position as the county seat in Fairfax, they couldn’t vote in congressional and presidential elections, and political and economic discord grew. Eventually, the interest in retrocession became mutual as abolitionists sought to outlaw slavery in DC and wanted Alexandria—then a hub for the trade of enslaved people—to be moved back to Virginia. In July 1846, that happened. The city continued to grow, with its prosperity, according to the tourism organization Visit Alexandria, “inextricably linked to the work of enslaved and free African Americans,” whose stories make up much of the town’s past. Today, it combines centuries of history with modern-day shops, restaurants, and activities for residents and visitors alike.

D.C. Developers Doubt Janeese Lewis George's 72,000-Home Pledge Can Survive the Market

Mayor-elect Janeese Lewis George campaigned on protecting tenants and getting 72,000 homes built across Washington, D.C. within five years, but as she prepares to take office in January, the developers who would actually build that housing are skeptical the number adds up. The District's development market has slowed sharply amid federal job losses, unpaid rent, regulatory hurdles and high financing costs, and many in the industry say Lewis George's early promises of denser zoning and faster permitting, however welcome, won't be enough to turn things around.

Major metropolitan county chooses data center block against budget deficit

(The Center Square) – Real estate once home to Landover Mall until 2002, and since a mostly vacant parking lot, is now the site of a stalled $5 billion data center in Maryland’s financially troubled Prince George’s County. Brightseat Tech Park, approved in 2024, has been met by protestors disputing its revenue generation in exchange for what they say is water pollution and higher electricity bills. The project was scheduled to break ground this year or next. Developers projected annual local tax revenue at $53.5 million. The county has a projected $151 million budget deficit. Prince George’s County is home to nearly 1 million people, the University of Maryland, Bowie State University, and NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center. On July 7, the county council passed a two-year pause through Resolution CR-066-2026. The woes are significant for the county and area this decade. Six Flags America, a 515-acre theme park in Bowie and Upper Marlboro, permanently closed; the NFL Washington Commanders are expected to exit Landover by 2030, going back to the site of their longtime home at RFK Stadium; and 2U Inc. filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. Regional Shoppers Food Warehouse locations are closing, Diamond Transportation filed a plant closure
